--- GHC.TopHandler
+-- Support for catching exceptions raised during top-level computations
+-- (e.g. @Main.main@, 'Control.Concurrent.forkIO', and foreign exports)
 --
--- 'Top-level' IO actions want to catch exceptions (e.g., forkIO and 
--- GHC.Main.mainIO) and report them - topHandler is the exception
--- handler they should use for this:
-
--- make sure we handle errors while reporting the error!
--- (e.g. evaluating the string passed to 'error' might generate
---  another error, etc.)
-
--- These functions can't go in GHC.Main, because GHC.Main isn't
--- included in HSstd.o (because GHC.Main depends on Main, which
--- doesn't exist yet...).
